xnoxbrendand: no, but since it's pure python you could use pypi-install10:16
xnoxwhich should make a package for you10:16
toabctlpitti, are there any reasons why ubuntu does not send the dbus patches upstream? there is already some code for systemd upstream, but nothing for dbus. i ask because i want to use dbus-test_runner on debian but the package needs a patched dbus version.10:21
toabctlnothing for upstart, i mean.10:21
pittitoabctl: the only patches I'm aware of that are not sent upstream are the ones for upstart activation10:21
toabctlpitti, yes. that's the question why theses patches are not send upstream.10:22
pittiI actually dropped them from my 1.5 merge in https://launchpad.net/~pitti/+archive/ppa/+packages10:22
pittitoabctl: I don't know; these are rather old, we don't use them, and I didn't feel like porting them10:22
pittidbus 1.5 causes some trouble with the indicators, so it wasn't uploaded yet10:22
toabctlpitti, so ubuntu should also work with a upstream dbus version without theses patches?10:23

barrykenvandine: so i think the good news is that libpeas *already* supports py3.  e.g. PYTHON=python3 ./configure --enable-python passes all its tests.  i scanned the code and found only very minor issues (which i'll open upstream bugs on) but none of which afaict should affect py3.  i think the tricky part will be building 1.4.0 in ubuntu such that an app can either enable py2 or py3 plugins (but obviously not both)15:41
kenvandinecool15:42
xnoxbarry: since libpeas is compile time, make two python2/3 libpeas dev packages and make them conflict each other. None of the reverse-build-dependencies of libpeas will be able to enable both of them.... unless there is a fallacy in my argument.15:46

infinityjamespage: Hrm, two things about that sync.  One, you dropped the default-jre-headless dep (maybe that's okay?), and two, the arch line seems to confuse lp-buildd's sbuild.  Not sure if it should or not, that may need investigating and fixing on the buildds.15:49
jamespageinfinity, yeah - I'm looking at that ATM15:50
jamespagethe drop on the dependency is OK15:50
jamespagebut the architecture check in sbuild is doing something cranky15:50
infinityjamespage: You could "fix" it by just letting that package build on "any" again, but perhaps the current arch list is perfectly legal and we're just not handling it correctly, due to the fact that we've never run into a package that was "all something-not-i386" before. :P15:50
jamespageinfinity, OR I could just drop the bits that are being retained for kfreebsd-*15:51
jamespageor we could fix sbuild15:51
jamespageI think its a valid combination15:51

slangasekseb128: the lo-menubar SRU is not at all clear; comment #11 from pitti on bug #754562 claims that this bug is *invalid* for lo-menubar in precise, and I don't see which bit here is supposed to supersede this.15:58

slangasekDaviey: which "original" precise one are you referring to?  I don't see that there's ever been a nova SRU accepted for precise15:59
slangasekDaviey: and the one in the queue is stalled not because of a security update but because it doesn't appear to fit the SRU policy16:00
Davieyslangasek: we were discussing this in #ubuntu-server about an hr ago.16:01
xnoxjamespage: what's the bug number?16:02
jamespagexnox, just writing it now16:02
Davieyslangasek: We are intentionally doing SRU's that don't normally fit the SRU policy16:02
xnoxjamespage: surely the lucid buildds have no clue what kfreebsd-* is what's so ever16:02
Davieyslangasek: bdmurray has been trying to dig into it.16:02
DavieyContext: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/technical-board/2011-December/001155.html16:02
bdmurrayDaviey: I went through and read more of the tech board emails16:02
slangasekDaviey: it's because of bdmurray's digging that I'm pinging SpamapS and pitti for the MRE status16:03
bdmurrayDaviey: and it seems like the tech board wants to see a history of successful micro releases being SRU'ed but that is explictily stated anywhere16:03
jamespagexnox, bug 101472216:03
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1014722 in launchpad-buildd "Unable to build hsqldb 1.8.0.10-12 directly from Debian" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/101472216:03
slangasekDaviey: and MREs are part of the SRU policy - I mean that this SRU neither has an MRE nor is verifiable using the more traditional route16:03
Davieybdmurray: this is the test candidate to 'see how it goes' to be granted MRE, no?16:03
slangasekthe test candidate was one uploaded to *oneiric*16:04
slangasekwhich has stalled 6 months, and now there's another upload to precise16:04
Davieyslangasek: yes, the test candidate from oneiric is the one that failed due to security superseeding16:04
slangasekok16:04
Davieywhich is why we are super keen to get this progressing to minimise the chance of it happening again16:05
xnoxjamespage: commented ;-)16:06
slangasekDaviey: getting it to progress is going to require having some plan for how the SRU is going to be verified, which is what I'm asking for16:06
slangasekaccepting it into -proposed only to have it stall there because no one will verify it is a waste of everyone's time16:07
Davieyslangasek: Right.. So.. We are doing unit testing at package build time.. functional testing in the CI lab, and extended validation by putting it into production in a real cloud (canonistack)16:07
Daviey(canonistack will test the -proposed package, when it lands there)16:08
bdmurraywell it also seems like pitti is for an alternate verification process, one where each bug isn't necessarily verification-done16:08
slangasekand this testing would be done for any nova SRU, or just the ones for precise because canonistack happens to be running precise?16:08
slangasekand what should happen with the oneiric nova SRU that's still sitting there?16:09
bdmurrayDaviey: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/technical-board/2011-December/001153.html - here chuck says the package won't FTBFS if the testsuite failed16:09
bdmurrayDaviey: has that changed?16:09
zulbdmurray: yeah its been like that for a while now16:10
Davieybdmurray: was that a typo?  they DO ftbfs if unit tests fail, no?16:10
Davieyzul: ^16:10
zulthey do16:10
Davieyslangasek: I don't have a good answer for Oneiric.. We can do extended validation ourselves, but not in a proper cloud.16:11
bdmurrayDaviey: not a typo16:11
Davieyslangasek: We are closely involved with upstream stable tress.. zul and myself are both reviewers.  The idea is to keep upstream ubuntu regression free (which is why we've invested in so much CI)16:11
* Daviey has to go now.. but will be back later.16:12
SpamapSslangasek: AFAIK, nova has no MRE, and the decision was stalled on "lets try a pretend one" where we don't verify all bugs but show a lot of regression testing.16:14
* SpamapS responds and *then* reads and realizes this is still under discussion16:14
slangasekDaviey: well, that doesn't sound like you're *committing* to do that validation though?  Either somebody should commit to following through on the oneiric SRU (including updating it for whatever security fixes make the current one invalid), or we should kick it out of -proposed instead of leaving it sitting there16:17
slangasekDaviey: in any case, if the one currently in -proposed is non-promotable because it's missing security fixes, we should remove that one from -proposed... is that the current state?16:18
zulslangasek: imho we should kick oneiric out from -proposed16:20
* xnox was under impression that heavy testing is done *before* uploading to -proposed, not after. as suggested above by Daviey "(canonistack will test the -proposed package, when it lands there)"16:22
* vibhav hugs xnox 16:22
vibhavxnox: thanks for the comment!16:23
slangasekxnox: we prefer that as much testing as possible happen with the real live package in -proposed, to avoid any mistakes with misbuilt binaries16:23
xnoxslangasek: ok I see your point. Simply other things, e.g. kernel, X-org edgers, KDE have beefy PPAs for pre testing before upload to -proposed.16:24
xnoxslangasek: yet one more unwritten "de-facto" policy16:25
slangasekxnox: the kernel ppa is a special case, we *copy* those binaries from the ppa into the archive16:25
vibhavAmpelbein: ping16:25
slangasekxnox: in cases where we don't do a package copy, I do not consider ppa testing a substitute for SRU testing16:25
SpamapSxnox: perhaps de-facto, but I think also pretty obvious as to why.16:26
* xnox noted, ok16:26
slangasekzul, SpamapS: nova removed from oneiric-proposed16:26

seb128slangasek, I didn't read the full bug history to be honest so I'm not sure about the old comments, the bottom line is that the precise version segfault when you try to print preview with lo-menubar installed16:53
seb128slangasek, which is happening to lot of users who read on the internet to install lo-menubar to get menus integrated, hud working, etc16:54
Davieyxnox: We also have a pre-proposed PPA, where testing happens.16:57
xnoxok16:57
Davieyxnox: We also regress test as much as we currently can per-commit, upstream16:57
seb128slangasek, bdmurray: if you have questions about the lo-menubar can you maybe grab directly kenvandine on IRC to sort them? that might work better than bug pingpong to figure what details you guys need17:00

mptpitti, hi. I have a work item for the installer, "add '3-D graphics' to the installer's third-party software text (ubiquity can detect whether nvidia card is in the system)". But ev just told me he thought the plan is to remove the Nvidia driver from that software bundle. Do you know which is right?17:03
seb128jml, read earlier on this channel, in case that's of any use to you17:03
jmlseb128: ah yes, thanks.17:04
* barry also wants emacs 24.1 :)17:04
jmlI'll go back to waiting patiently then. I'm not in a rush to use a snapshot.17:04
xnoxmpt: pitti: ev: I think I saw bugs about not being able to install nvidia proprietary driver, while running in Live-CD / during installation. It succeeds only after first boot.17:09
evxnox: right, we never installed it in the live cd session17:10
evon in the target system17:10
evonly*17:10
xnoxmpt: ^^ i think you have your answer =)17:12
mptxnox, no, the paragraph isn't about the live session17:12
mptit's about installing Flash, MP3 codecs, etc on the installed system17:13
xnoxmpt: which will not ever include nvidia drivers17:13
mptxnox, how do you know?17:13
xnoxmpt: nvidia drivers where previously comming from the jockey. In the future they will be offered/installed by ubuntu-drivers-common and/or software-centre based on modlines17:14
mptxnox, I don't know what a modline is, so I don't know what that has to do with the installer.17:14
* xnox modlines ?! well the hardware graphics card identifier line in packages,17:14
mptxnox, by "the installer" I mean Ubiquity17:14
xnoxmpt: Ubiquity currently does not install nvidia. There are no plans to make it do so.17:15
xnoxmpt: nvidia graphics drivers require adding kernel modules and regenerating initramfs, which currently is not possible to do onto the target hard-drive.17:16
mptSo, I wonder why someone put it as a work item in the session17:16
mpt[albertomilone] ensure that installing nvidia/fglrx driver package also updates the alternatives symlinks and updates initramfs for the changed blacklists: DONE17:16
mptI guess that means Alberto has done the impossible? :-)17:17
xnoxmpt: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1047658/17:17
xnoxmpt: 'installing' != 'ubiquity', installing as in on the machine, not during the installation.17:17
mptI see17:18
mptWell, that's annoying.17:20
xnoxmpt: the paste lists depends & the packages, which I think are dynamically downloaded and installed from the internetz17:20
xnoxmpt: yes it is annoying. That even if you choose to install updates & restricted stuff during the installation, you still will have to install stuff on the first reboot.17:21
xnoxmpt: but there is little we can currently do about it. Maybe in two-three releases something will change and we will be able to fix that.17:21
mptHeh, true, but I meant annoying only for me. :-)17:21
xnoxOh, I see =))) workitems =))))17:22
xnoxmpt: the text you did for ubiquity is fine. Another text maybe needed for the ubuntu-drivers-common, not sure.17:23
mptxnox, it's not fine if it says it might install graphics drivers when it never does.17:23
* xnox hides17:23
mptSorry, didn't mean that to sound anvil-droppy. :-)17:29
xnoxmpt: this got me thinking about this a bit. there is a support to run a post-first-boot-script which we can tell to install the package.17:32
xnoxand if we detected which nvidia drivers to install17:32
xnoxwe can make it install automatically without user intervention17:32
xnox(and pre-download the package during the installation and stick it into (target)/var/cache/apt/archives)17:32
xnoxmpt: this will result in (1) install (2) reboot (3) notification - your system needs a restart to complete upgrades17:33
xnox=/17:33

kenvandineslangasek, pong17:44
barryxnox, kenvandine: i don't think it's quite as easy to adjust the packaging to include py3 support in libpeas.  first, it doesn't package up a separate python loader, so you can't just add a python3-foo package.  you end up with /usr/lib/libpeas-1.0/loaders/libpythonloader.so.  so i guess you could just do a second build of just the py3 loader and name it libpython3loader.so and include it in the libpeas-1.0-0 package (w/corresponding17:44
barrychanges for the debug version).17:44
barryxnox, kenvandine of course it's also cdbs, so ouch :/17:45
barryxnox, kenvandine or maybe we should just do a binary package split of the python2 and python3 loaders17:45
kenvandinebarry, i think that makes sense17:46
barryxnox, kenvandine since i don't use libpeas, i don't know what the right thing to do is.  suggestions welcome17:46
kenvandinei've never used it before... so not much help there17:46
xnoxbarry: i don't use libpeas, I use apps that use libpeas. Have you talked to upstream on GIMPNet as to what the best way to support both?17:47
slangasekkenvandine: hi, can you fill out the bug description with the information required per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure ?  The bug history is very fuzzy, we need authoritative information about what is being fixed here and why.  The bug history shows pitti saying the code isn't even in lo-menubar past natty.17:47
kenvandineslangasek, i can try... it is a bit fuzzy to me too17:47
kenvandineit has been merged into upstream LO17:47
kenvandinebut never enabled17:47
kenvandinethe changes in this version is actually from upstream LO17:48
barryxnox: i haven't.  upstream may not be the most appropriate place though since as far as upstream's concerned, they support py3.  i think it's more a packaging issue, so i think i'll contact the debian maintainer (pkg-gnome-maintainers) and cc debian-python17:48

kenvandineslangasek, however upstream for lo-menubar tried to backport just the fix for this bug and gave up... said it would be just as big of a change and more work than it was worth17:49
slangasekkenvandine: ok.  when updating the bug, can you include that information, and also comment on why it's safe to take the refactoring changes instead of doing that backport?17:50

mattraein the end i just need the debug symbols for a backtrace, so if there are manual steps i can take to apply patches and compile, thats fine too. i don't know enough about packaging yet to know what is safe19:29
xnoxmattrae: i think it is a known problem that mysql-server is missing ddebs19:32
xnoxthere was a bug about it or something somewhere19:32
xnoxmattrae: basically the buildsystem unconditionally strips them / builds without them.19:32
xnoxmattrae: pretty sure that someone took an action item on it, as it was picked for the blueprint that ddebs should be generated for every single version of the package, not just the current one19:33

ubottuLaunchpad bug 1004678 in Landscape Client "Release 12.05" [High,Fix committed]20:22
ahasenackI'm going to prepare an SRU for those20:22
stgrabermaco: :)20:23
infinityahasenack: Sure.20:23
ahasenackinfinity: thanks a lot20:23
tumbleweedxnox: we offer a 30 day money-back guarantee on your core-dev application, if you break everything20:27
xnoxtumbleweed: fix the web link on your core-dev application, then we'll talk ;-)20:28
tumbleweed:)20:28
* xnox started the trend with table based applications20:29
xnoxtumbleweed: should that be added to the template?20:29
tumbleweednaah, but your one was prettier20:29
tumbleweedthe sponsorship miner does table generation20:30
xnoxstgraber: am I ok to forward your LXC reply to ubuntu-distributed-developer mailing list?20:33
stgraberxnox: sure20:33
xnoxtumbleweed: what sponsorship miner?20:35
tumbleweedxnox: http://ubuntu-dev.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu-sponsorships.cgi20:36
xnoxtumbleweed: it's so slowwwwwww20:37
tumbleweedblame the ancient samosa.d.o20:37
xnoxtumbleweed: and no syncs, but that's a known bug20:37
* tumbleweed should actually host that on ubuntuwire, now that we have UDD there20:38
xnoxtumbleweed: I think my table css should be added to the template css for inside the page tables20:38
xnoxtumbleweed: I stole it from the Releases page ;-)20:38
tumbleweedit'll have recent synsc (since lp started recording the sponsor)20:39
xnoxfair enough20:43
cndginn is seeded in ubuntu's desktop image, but we don't plan to support it in quantal and future20:43
cndI want to remove it from the desktop seed20:43
xnoxtumbleweed: ## [[CategoryCoreDevApplication]] where you mean to uncomment this?20:44
cndis there a process I need to follow, or do I just edit the seed directly?20:44
tumbleweedxnox: your attention to detail is impressive :)20:45
xnoxtumbleweed: don't thank me, thank OCD20:45
infinitycnd: If there's some concensus in your team that dropping it is the right thing to do, just edit the seeds and commit.20:45
cndinfinity, ok, thanks20:45
infinitycnd: And if you want it gone RIGHT NOW, update ubuntu-meta afterward.  Otherwise, someone will pick it up when they refresh meta later.20:46
cndinfinity, it can wait20:46
ahasenackhi, I see that oneiric has had a landscape-client sru already (12.04.3-0ubuntu0.11.10 in oneiric-updates), but the branch lp:ubuntu/oneiric-updates/landscape-client doesn't seem to exist20:46
ahasenackdo I have a typo, or was the update not imported into udd?20:47
infinitycnd: Note that it's in the edubuntu seeds as well as the ubuntu ones.20:47
infinitystgraber: ^20:47
cndinfinity, I'll remove it from there too, but how did you figure that out?20:47
cnddo you have all the seeds on your computer?20:47
cndor is there some tool?20:47
infinitycnd: apt-cache show ginn.20:47
infinitycnd: But I do have them all checked out as well.20:48
cndinfinity, from the Task field?20:48
infinitycnd: Yeah.20:48
cndok20:48
cndthanks20:48
infinitycnd: There's also "seeded-in-ubuntu" in ubuntu-dev-tools.20:48
infinitycnd: "seeded-in-ubuntu ginn"20:49
cndahh20:49
stgraberinfinity, cnd: edubuntu-desktop depends on ubuntu-desktop, so that's how it ends up being seeded by edubuntu too. I'm fine with dropping it.20:50
cndstgraber, I was just about to ask about that20:51
infinitystgraber: Ahh, I've never looked at edubuntu's STRUCTURE.20:51
cndsince I didn't see ginn in the edubuntu seed :)20:51
cndinfinity, thanks for the help, I think everything is good now :)20:51
cndinfinity, though this does beg the question: will ginn be automatically demoted from main to universe?20:52
infinitycnd: Once meta is refreshed, yes.20:52
cndok20:52
cndcool20:52
infinitycnd: If you want it in main, add it to supported.20:53
cndnope, we don't want to support it anymore :)20:53
infinityCheck.20:53
infinityThen yes, it'll automagically drop out once nothing in main depends on it.20:53
infinity(Which is just ubuntu-desktop)20:53
ScottKxnox: Congratulations.20:56
xnoxScottK: thanks a lot21:00
xnoxScottK: at the meeting we mostly discussed cookies & food transfer protocols and then did a vote21:02
ScottKyes.  I saw it in my scrollback.21:02
ScottKMeetings like those as a good sign you were ready to apply.21:02
broderxnox: yeah, +1 - congrats :)21:03
* xnox OMG my team memberships exploaded. So this is how almost everyone has 50 shades of Xubuntu logo on their homepage21:07
xnoxbroder: thanks21:07
xnoxinfinity: thanks for ~debiandevelopers approval21:16
malkaunshow do i change the titlebar text vertical offset?21:17
infinityxnox: Yeah, I really need to clean that up some time.  I only add people who I can easily verify, I think I need to some sort of challenge/response email with the people I don't know and get them to sign the response with their Debian keys or something.21:17
infinityxnox: Y'know, when I find some mythical "spare time".21:17
tumbleweedhow about just checking if they have a debian-keyring key in their profile?21:17
infinitytumbleweed: You can upload any old public key to your launchpad profile.21:18
xnoxinfinity: I'd think @debian.org on launchpad page is enough, since they had to verify launchpad's challenge response email21:18
infinitytumbleweed: (If I could verify what key they signed the CoC with, that would work)21:18
tumbleweedoh, I thought it made you verify it21:18
infinitytumbleweed: Oh, if it does, that helps.  I haven't changed my key in LP since 2005. :P21:18
xnoxinfinity: gpg key upload has challenge response.21:18
xnoxon launchpad that is21:19
infinityxnox: Kay, good to know.  That'll help me automate probably about half the list.21:19
xnoxinfinity: the trickier bit is removing MIA / alumni21:19
infinityxnox: Well, it's not like the group grants you anything useful.  I just want it to be vaguely accurate and not hand out swirls willy nilly.21:20
xnoxinfinity: =)))) the swirls willy nilly master21:20
xnoxinfinity: lp-api to the rescue =) for automation21:20
infinity(It should actually be bottles and swirls, but man, that's hard to represent in a tiny icon)21:20
infinityThe swirl looks bad enough as it is at that size.21:21
xnoxinfinity: you and your urges to get everyone drunk.....21:21
* xnox kidding21:21
cjwatsonxnox: oh, well done21:45
xnoxcjwatson: thanks =)21:48

* Laney spots some controversial core-dev apps on the horizon ...21:53
xnoxLaney: don't forget to vote for yourself ;-)21:54
slangasekxnox: congrats :)21:54
slangasekLaney: oh?  how's that?21:54
xnoxslangasek: thank you21:54
Laneyslangasek: these "Laney" and "tumbleweed" characters are on the list21:54
slangasekoh, your own, I see :)21:54
xnoxslangasek: my "quick" (only 5 years) core-dev application triggered Laney & tumbleweed to apply21:55
* slangasek grins21:55
LaneyI heard they were the shady sort21:55
xnoxLaney: 5 years or Laney&tumbleweed's applications21:55
broderyou guys finally are applying!21:56
ajmitchLaney: can't trust them, I heard21:57
infinityLaney: The team's full, we'll have to kick out ajmitch to make room for you.21:58
ajmitchwouldn't surprise me if they did :P21:58
Laneythen who would I trick into doing last minute high risk uploads?21:59
* xnox winks22:00
ajmitchI think xnox just volunteered?22:00
cjwatsonOh, I usually go for infinity for that22:00
infinityI do that all by myself without prompting!22:01
* micahg seems to end up with some of those as well on occastion22:01
infinitymicahg: Yeah, but mine work.22:02
micahginfinity: good point :)22:02
* infinity runs away to find "lunch" before micahg hunts him down.22:03
* ajmitch should quietly hide from micahg also22:03
* xnox is off to try the UDD way of committing to branch to find out why core-devs complain about it so much. I can't possibly break package import more than it already is, right?22:04
jonoslangasek, hey22:04
jonoslangasek, do you have time for a quick G+ call?22:04
micahgxnox: yes, you can :)22:05
* micahg thinks casper was the example of that22:05
xnoxalso I'm sure infinity told me I get cookies after becoming a core-dev =)22:06
slangasekjono: sure22:06
jonothanks slangasek, I will set it up22:06

* SpamapS starts a test build of PHP 5.4.4 for quantal22:28
bkerensaSpamapS: nice!22:29
SpamapSsans-suhosin unfortunately.. but still.. time to move forward22:29
bkerensaSpamapS: You know of any straightforward guides to debian chroot on Ubuntu?22:29
SpamapSbkerensa: mk-sbuild --architecture foo unstable22:30
infinitybkerensa: debootstrap --variant=buildd sid sid http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian22:30
bkerensaahh22:30
bkerensa:D22:30
infinityOr his. :P22:30
* SpamapS hugs mk-sbuild22:30
bkerensaSpamapS: you rock... I think thats command slangasek gave me a few months back (I need a notebook)22:30
SpamapSbkerensa: nah, you just need grep :) 574M    irclogs22:31
SpamapSI think aths like, 9 years of irc logs22:32
infinityPfft.  IRC logs are for people whose hosts go down.  I just have unlimited backscroll.22:32
SpamapSaths .. very close to thats22:32
SpamapSinfinity: uptime, the true measure of an admin's virility22:32
infinitySpamapS: And how.22:33
infinityGather 'round the netcraft kids, let me tell you a story.22:33
infinityAbout the good old days, when Linux hosts appeared to always reboot at 437 days.22:33
bkerensainfinity: Can you search infinite backscroll?22:33
bkerensa=/22:33
infinityErr, 497.22:34
infinityIt's been a while.22:34
SpamapSinfinity: and then redhat begat day 438, and then day 1007 begat local kernel exploits, and all was rooted, ahhhhhhmmmeeeenn22:34

bkerensaSpamapS: E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list23:07
bkerensawhy would it not put some in itself?23:08
maxbWhy would building a chroot require source?23:10
bkerensamaxb: this is when I try and apt-get build-dep packagename23:12
maxbwell, do what the error tells you to, then23:13
micahgbkerensa: yes, you need a source entry to know which build deps to use (or use mk-build-deps -i -r in a debian source dir)23:13
bkerensamicahg: well the sources.list inside the chroot already have a source entry defined23:18
bkerensamicahg: my fail for not apt-get update23:21
